Day Trip From Bowen - Airlie Beach
Day Trip From Bowen Airlie Beach North Queensland. Australia There is more to the magical Whitsundays than just the islands. The Whitsunday Coast has a myriad of secluded beaches, lush rainforests and areas the locals love to explore, off the beaten track. Early morning we took the coastal drive from Bowen to Airlie Beach, which is scenic drive with many wonderful stops that should be experienced. The drive is 78 kilometres from Bowen passing multiple cattle stations and scenic cane fields when in late June the eerie glow of cane fires can still be seen at night, a spectacular sight to catch on camera. If you’d like to discover one of Queensland’s best-kept secrets, venture off the highway just north of Airlie Beach to Dingo Beach and Cape Gloucester, a surprisingly beautiful and undeveloped part of the coast. Cape Gloucester has two beachside resorts. Montes Reef Resort is lively, while Cape Gloucester Resort is quiet and private. Enjoy the coastal scenery with a spot of lunch...
